Fair Finance Asia (FFA), with support from data storytelling studio Kontinentalist, is launching data visualizations that amplify key messages and recommendations from FFA’s scorecard, Empowering Consumers as Drivers of Sustainability in Asia’s Financial Sector.  

This scorecard was developed in collaboration with Fair Finance Cambodia (FFC), ResponsiBank Indonesia, Fair Finance Pakistan (FFP), Fair Finance Philippines (FF Ph), Fair Finance Thailand (FFT), and research partner, Profundo. The scorecard benchmarked the policies of 15 banks across Cambodia, Indonesia, Pakistan, the Philippines, and Thailand in four key areas: financial inclusion, consumer protection, financial literacy and education, and engagement and accountability mechanisms.    

Visualization 1 highlights that while many of the 15 banks scored better on average in financial inclusion (5.2/10) and consumer protection (5.5/10), they scored poorly on engagement and accountability mechanisms (1.3/10).  

Visualization 2 highlights the scores of banks per country, and identifies which of the four key areas need improvement.
